In The Critique of Commodification, Christoph Hermann argues that commodification entails production for profit rather than provision for need. The focus on profits, Hermann shows, means that social needs are met in a way that excludes those who cannot pay and ensures high profits. In going through the damaging effects of commodification, Hermann also discusses alternatives based on the satisfaction of needs rather than maximization of profits.

Over the past few years a new breed of multinationals has arrived, almost unnoticed, on the scene. Like early capitalist adventurers, they have found a rich new source of wealth to exploit. But this seam of gold is to be found, not in the mountains of California or the depths of Africa but at the very heart of the welfare states of the developed world. This important collection of essays anatomises the emergence of the 'public services industr...

This book takes the persistence of long work hours as starting point to investigate the relationship between capitalism and work time. It does so by discussing major theoretical schools and their explanations for the length and distribution of work hours, as well as tracing major changes in production and reproduction systems, and analyzing their consequences for work hours.

Umso schwieriger ist es für die drei, ihrer überaus neugierigen Kuh Carola mit Rat und Tat zur Seite zu stehen, wenn diese sich wieder einmal in Schwierigkeiten gebracht hat.

Die Debatte um Bürgerbeteiligung bei Großprojekten hat deutlich an Fahrt aufgenommen. Ob Brücke, Stromtrasse oder Flughafen: Seit den Protesten gegen Stuttgart 21 und der 2010 erfolgten Schlichtung gibt es kaum noch ein strittiges Bauvorhaben, das nicht von der Forderung nach einem Mehr an Bürgerbeteiligung begleitet wird. Der Handlungsdruck auf die Planungsverantwortlichen hat sich dadurch erhöht - mittlerweile ergreifen Politik und Wirtsch...

This book illustrates the ways in which liberalization has contributed to increasing private and foreign ownership of public services, the decentralization of labor relations has amplified pressure on wages, and decreasing employment numbers and increasing workloads have improved productivity partly at the cost of service quality. Examining diverse public-service sectors including network industries, public transportation, and hospitals, and u...
